I used to work with a Mac, which was short for Macaroni.

Responses:

Yes! I worked with a person from the Philippines named "Princess". nm - ralph wiggum Jul 21, 17:23 8
- I don't know how I omitted this, but Macaroni had a sister named Cheese, because obviously. -- nm - mafic Jul 21, 17:36 3
  - no way -- nm - mud Jul 21, 17:38 2
    - forget is mud, it's the Philippines. my friend's nanny was Mitos, because her mom really like Mitosis. - mafic Jul 21, 17:41 1

- I read a reddit thread recently about the popularity of the name "queenie" in the philippines. I called chubbins "queenie" that night. - amanda Jul 21, 17:28 3
  - Took me an hour punching glitterball to get it out of my system. -- nm - chubbins Jul 21, 17:33 2
    - also *twinkleball (glitterball is different. only ollie plays glitterball (and not often).) -- nm - amanda Jul 21, 17:35
    - related, here's chubbins playing with a costly ponytail holder. -- (link) - amanda Jul 21, 17:34 [youtube]
Ha! I think Person is from Haiti. -- nm - Diva Jul 21, 17:19 1
- Given what I've heard about how hard it is to travel with a Haitian passport, the name Person would be a good way to remind people to treat them like one -- nm* - Beryllium Jul 21, 17:25
